C'est le vin le plus sec que l'on puisse trouver. À quoi se réfère le pronoun l'?

Pourquoi "tu es" est-il la bonne réponse ici ? 

Judging by the comments below and my own experience of this lesson i think it could still be tweaked to improve it.  It think it would be helpful to: 

* add - write out - relevant (new to some) vocabulary for decimals, commas and currencies

* emphasise how the rules for writing numbers in French are the same (or different) when used for currencies vs other contexts

* provide and describe a few more complex examples, including the outliers (eg uncommon use of a decimal point in French), with at least one example of a French number which translates to three or more decimal points in English. The latter would be very useful because it highlights how our Eng/French translation brain can get confused (evident in these discussions) because it looks identical to the English version of numbers in the thousands.  

I don't understand why déchiffrer is in the "vous" form here. Surely after "arrivez à" it should be in the infinitive ? Or does "Arriver à" behave differently from most verbs with à after them ?

It would be really great if this VERY important concept of Direct Object could be added to this lesson. - https://french.kwiziq.com/questions/view/wrong-answer-nous-sommes-brosse . 

More importantly because, this lesson says this « Note that when être is used as the auxiliary in compound tenses such as Le Passé Composé, the past participle must always agree in gender and number with the subject of the verb.»  --- and this statement is not true for this lesson on reflexive verbs as per the link. It creates a confusion. Kindly rectify this incorrect statement and help us new learners with the necessary concept within this lesson, please!

Thank You.

The phrase in English was "I will introduce her to Amelie" (sorry I don't have accents).  The translation given is je lui presenterai Amelie which I take to mean "I will introduce Amelie to her".  Should it not be "je la presenterai a Amelie"?

I was marked only partially correct in answering the question: Another way of saying "Vous vous souvenez des îles Cyclades" is "Vous ________ îles Cyclades"

I answered “Vous vous rappelez des îles Cyclades” and was informed that Vous vous rappeles des was another possibility.

Why do you not receive full credit if an answer is correct regardless of other options in this case?

In conjugation tables, I have not seen this ending with vous.  Could you please address this issue?

Thank you.
